What promotes tumor growth is higher level of blood sugar, which you
would typically get on a high carb diet.

He'd been on ultra-low carb diet for a number of years...

Best advice, based on years of reading (in science and nutrition):
eat plenty of nutrient-dense fruits and vegetables.

That is not incompatible with low carbing. I am low carbing and I eat
more vegs and fruits than most average people. My fruits are peppers
and tomatoes. (they are technically fruits, although I tend to think
about them as vegs)

I hope you prefer the sweet, ripe peppers to the green ones. Far more
nutritious.

Blueberries are among the most phyto-chemically rich fruits you can eat.
Plus dark-colored grapes and plums. How about peaches and colorful
melons?

As for veggies, diet that discourages you from eating carrots and deep orange
sweet potatoes is silly.

Final word.
